His Grand Divine Emperor Valri IX is temporarily revoking his signature as talks with the Dominus Sicarii resume about the treaty.

You guys are killing me....

*murmurous angry comments*

Well, with the merging of TCE, we have to look at the new implications. Which, judging by your recent actions, I'd say would be to eventually get a merge with Sicarius.
Which, no.

[Rifty]

Resume? Begin, more like it

As far as I'm concerned it is resume...

If you offered me one day "Can we merge into AoI" id be on that like hot bitches on smarties...but...No I ain't perusing a merger with your region. TPC TCE (I fucking hate these thousands of acronyms...) was not allied with us at all so having a treaty makes you no more likely to be propositioned on the matter from me. If you have fears of the sought we can very simply put this pact behind us and return to the former agreement of nothing set in stone and working alongside Sicarius like any other RU member. I personally feel my time get be better spent then appealing to the executives of another region on matters that aren't going to occur.

Nope there will never be a merge with Sicarius not least because Rift knows it would never happen. TCE merger has naught to do with a treaty which for all intents and purposes is merely a signification of the already close ties shared between AoI and Sicarius.

Well, as far as I'm concerned, you can wait a bit longer to get signatures.

29th November, Minor update

This is the first of many more tag runs to come from AoI. Not only was this the first tag run of AoI but the first Tag run of AoI's leader - Self proclaimed Prophet Rifty.

[Riotopia]

Damn got 0.6% private sector from somewhere and my economy fell down from Frightening XD

[Valrifell]

Strange, I distinctively recall some of those being Sicarius tags. No, can't be. Surely the almighty and righteous Rifty would have asked to re-tag Sicarius tags. I must be delusional.
I mean, we, the barbaric raiders of Sicarius had nicely asked the General Staff of TBR if it was alright to retag their tags, so if they were Sicarius tags, the superior Rifty would've asked.

Five or six of those regions were just tagged by Sicarius 2 days ago...

If even Rifty outdoes me in raiding,I know I should step up my game

I wasnt in the raid, but i am pretty sure he sucked...probably only jumped half the time

First time in years I got on a raid with Halcones,missed about 5-10 jumps and 10 more from lack of enough puppets

Me too. i usually jump on every other target depending on the countdown

[NoblePhnx]

Take it down a notch your old running mate Shad was in charge of the targets it looks like you had the same or similar sheet shared between the two of you Trick.

Honestly we all need to tone down the bloody tension over nothing Sicarius tags were not willfully taken and I fail to see what you intend to point out in terms of Rift taking part in his first tag raid ever. I guess everyone is spot on in their first one right!

[Ever-Wandering Souls]

Personal attacks were unnecessary. The management of the region does however wish to express....dissatisfaction... with the lack of consideration given, especially in the middle of treaty negotiations. Regardless of sheets or whatnot being used, a human still went and replaced our tag - not a huge deal in the grand scheme of things really. What's objectionable is the lack of communication. We approached TBR and asked if we could potentially include their tags in our runs, whiles ago. The answer was yes, so long as we were fine with it occurring the other way around, and both parties left embassies with the originally tagging region. It's barely been mentioned since, once it was settled, and it's worked. There's no reason we wouldn't agree to the same with you, the objection is in the assumption that it was permissible, without anyone actually asking.

Not a great foot to set out on.

Yeah f8ck the treaty its causing unnecessary reasons for issues it was just a treaty signifying relations it got all blown out to hell along with some strange fear of Rift planning to push a merger that would NEVER happen or even be on the table that everyone involved knows full and well.

Shad who joined AoI yesterday got the sheet from Trick now Trick says he told Shad not to hit the same targets well that's between the two of them who until yesterday might I remind you were both TCE so that does not fall on us. It's not a lack of communication nor is it an issue of retagging permissibility due to teh literally 24 hours that have passed since TCE joined AoI. Surely you do not think that is a reasonable amount of time in which to review retagging protocols or hitlists that were generated impropmtu and only in the hands of the raid leader.

[Ever-Wandering Souls]

Not entirely sure what Val is on about, but there have been no small number of hints that the best thing for our future would be merging with AOI from Rifty. THe treaty is a separate thing anyways, and we're in the process of preparing a counter-proposal.

We'd have the same reaction had TCE hit those region, for they've never approached us either. Someone out there was point, and retagged those region, maybe, maybe not after first asking superiors if it was okay to do so. I wasn't there, I wouldn't know. Regardless, the fact remains that AOI just removed Sicarius tags without ever asking for permission, and an apology, or at the VERY least, a ounce of respect and an expressed intent for change to occur, would be quite in order.

New members are still members, and and their actions represent your organization. It'd be nice if y'all took a bit of responsibility instead of just pointing the finger onward. If one of my men had been leading this run, I would have apologized for the misunderstanding, sought such an agreement, and moved on by now. It's not really unclear, or a subjective matter. You're in the wrong here.

Yeah, sorry about that.
Left my tin foil hat on.

[Ever-Wandering Souls]

My underlying reaction entirely

At this point, their reaction to our note of protest is much more concerning than the original action itself.

Treaty wasn't my idea not to mention its intent was turned totally on its head, to be honest I don't think there is a need for it but Rift operates differently and foreign affairs are his domain and since he has been successful at gaining alliances and gaining commonwealth members I went along with his initiative.

Yes and don't address the rest of the points therein. That Sicarius was not slighted in any way by AoI in that tag run. Because if you were then much ado with nothing.
